   About Dry Riser
.. EP available on line or selected HMV Industry Reviews Dry Riser are a 4 piece band based in Kentish Town. Their first release, the 4 track EP entitled 'Two Many Chiefs' is reminiscent of the 1960's yet you can't quite figure out who they sound like. It is refreshing to hear a band drawing so much inspiration from their influences whilst retaining their own uniqueness. The plucky guitar sound has reverberations of The Kinks while the layered and beautifully crafted songs give an aura of early Small Faces. The EP, perfected though endless live outings and hours and hours of studio time is an extremely well crafted piece. The tracks have so many layers and every new listen finds something else, something new to catch your imagination. Stand out track ' A lot for her to take' is rhythmically brilliant. The driving guitar pushes the song along and the subtle bass line will stay in your head for days. Despite all of the different elements Dry Riser manage to find an instant simple sound with rare originality that harks back to years gone by. Mike Grady. Well crafted indie with a near-flamenco flourish added to the structure, the ska-like off beat drawing you in before those honey drenched vocals plant themselves firmly in your subconscious – hypnotically beautiful… Subba-Culture All 4 Tracks are masterpieces and are a window into the bright future of Dry Riser. Influences of post rock masters; Radiohead can be heard within their music, but none more so than in the excellent vocals from Nik Ledgard. The opening track Myself could have been written by Thom Yorke. The title track changes up the mood shifting towards more of an acoustic: electro number, adding electrified vocals and sharp, punchy rhythm. Rushing brings in slower, clean guitar melodies and lets Nik Ledgards perfect vocals shine above the mix. We hope to hear more from Dry Riser soon. Gig Guide
